Oil Patch Bits: ExxonMobil and the Harris Foundation in San Diego

ExxonMobil said Jan. 29 that former U.S. astronaut Bernard Harris gave students and teachers in San Diego a first-hand experience with the wonders of science, technology, engineering and mathematics when “The Dream Tour, presented by ExxonMobil” made its first stop of 2010 at Abraham Lincoln High School, speaking to 650 students from Millennial Middle School, Innovation Middle School and Memorial Preparatory School. The tour is designed to encourage today’s middle school students to realize their potentials and strive to acquire strong math and science skills. The program included an interactive and inspirational program by Harris, a demonstration on space and engaging dialogue about achieving goals. This year the dream tour will visit Anchorage, Baton Rouge, Billings, Cleveland, Denver, Nashville, Philadelphia, Phoenix, San Diego and San Francisco as Dr. Harris continues to motivate and inspire students to pursue math and science.
